Checked the archives with no luck, can't seem to  find any info in engine documentation, therefore does anybody know the torque  required for the nuts which hold the ears on the IO-540-D4A5 ? Its a 3/8 stud so  does the usual torque number apply? 

 Thanks

You can look in the Engine Overhaul Manual if you have one and if it isn't specified then you use the general table of torque values for the engine.  I have one, but don't have access to it right now.  I'll look later if someone else hasn't already helped you by then.

Thats what I need but don't have one yet...figured  someone on the list may have one at their finger tips.  I wasn't sure I  would want to use the standard torque since the stud is in Al housing. Other  folks are checking so if I hear from my local builder friends I'll let you  know.

 Thanks

I have one...just not at my fingertips. In a few hours I may be able to get you the value.

The torque will be in your maintenace manual. If it is different it will be indicated as such. Don't forget your maintenance overhaul manual composes also of SB, SL and SI. as stated in the front of your maintenance book.

 And when you do your mags repair don't forget section 8 of the unison/slick  manuals. Otherwise you really are experimenting. Right Tim.
